Rigid Heddle weaving 'Try It Out” Day
For people who would like to try out rigid heddle weaving and don’t yet have their own loom, or people who want to get more comfortable with their own loom in a relaxed environment. You will weave a short length of fabric on a pre-warped rigid heddle loom, and finish with your own unique wall hanging or table runner.These are small classes of 4 – 6 students. There are four places available in each class for students who do not have their own looms.
Note we will not go over warping a loom in this class; all looms must be pre-warped before the class. One-on-one tutoring is available separately for students who would like to learn warping.
